I am getting a wicked humm when I switch the PSM-5 on wit my board.
Really quite signal from the pedals, but a wicked hum from the psm-5
It is doing it with both PSM-5, any ideas what I am doing wrong? I have the leads all sent right, checked each cable, and the all work fine. Could the daisy chain be faulty? |

| check the noraml, cables for all the pedals, most likely check the power supply. you can get a ground loop hum from there |

Still getting my hum, when I try to use the send and return function from the PSM-5. If i just use it to powere the pedals and go from the guitar to my OD-1 and the last pedal in the chain to the amp, I get no buzz.
My patchs, daisy chain or all working fine.
I am using a Roland ACR-120 as the adapter. The orginal adapter that came with the pedal does not work. Do I need a different adpapter. Is there adiffernce between the PSA Adpater, and the ACR? Is the current flow differnt? |

| I think that the ACR-120 is a keyboard power supply. Check to see that the output is 9 volts DC and that the center pole is Negative. If these two things are not true then DO NOT USE it. |

| Yeah, it was the adapter, I tired a PSA-120T and it worked fine. Called BOSS and they said the new PSA-120S will do the job. |

| I know this sounds dumb but are you sure it not another pedal in the loop.I would try the new power supply and run the other pedals on battery for a test. i think most likely is is the power supply giving the problem |
